I have read many books about slavery and the underground railroad and how slaves worked to get free but never before have I read a book that spoke of the native American's and how they helped slaves find freedom. This story is about friendship, loyalty and believing in yourself, but also following what you believe. Martha Tom became friends with Little Mo and his family. She was moved by their faith and their spirit and when the time came for her to help them, she helped them and showed bravery. A great folk tale to tie into both a native American study as well as a study of slavery.
